I'm screaming in the darkness
Alone and no one cares
No one hears
I'm facing the monster in the mirror
Behind smoke and glass
Illusions haunt my eyes
Making me wonder
What is real and what is not
What is here and what is gone
The monster in the mirror
Masters my every move
Disguising itself among the living
Sometimes it's the monster people see
Sometimes it's the victim
I'm the victim
Running in endless circles
Trying to escape the impossible
I run so far never getting anyway
The past always catches up
No matter how far you run
All you have to do is look in the mirror
And you will see your monster
To My Lost Sister
Well done my friend
You write enchantingly
You've hit what once was
The deepest part of me
Your words flow
Like a strong running stream
Flooding emotions
Like waking from a dream
We all have heard:
I'm my worst enemy
But until I saw my self
It didn't get through to me
Yet realizing the problem
Begins the solution
Continue to climb
Or fall to volution
Our choices are ours
And we become
What our choices have made us
And our souls blossom.
